On this week’s episode of The Putback with Ian Begley, SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley and Chris Williamson react to the blockbuster trade that brings James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets.

The guys also welcome Nets season ticket holder and WFAN personality Evan Roberts to discuss topics around the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets rivalry. They cover Kyrie Irving’s absence, Steve Nash’s tough start to his coaching career, and the importance of a good crosstown rivalry to the NBA. NYC MC and rabid Knicks fan Skyzoo makes a cameo to ask Ian about the best way for the Knicks to iron down the PG position, and we all learn that Ian gets a lyrical shoutout in a Skyzoo track. Controversial NBA Twitter personality Marcus Gradney also stops by to offer a different perspective on the Kyrie drama, defending him from a social perspective.
